Rating 75.0

Carved from rolling orange groves and native, protected wetlands, Mystic Dunes Golf Club sits on the edge of the premier travel destination in the world yet offers a feeling of escape from it all. Located just two miles south of Walt Disney World, Mystic Dunes was designed by PGA Tour player and NBC golf analyst Gary Koch.

Tee-to-green, this golf course is stylish blend of classic strategic forms and thoroughly modern methods, but it is its greens that will make this course notable beyond whatever regional reputation it develops. Greens reminiscent of Augusta National, par-4 holes that rival in length to some of the longest seen in major championships, and a diabolical quartet of par 3s that seem to get more intense as the round progresses are just some of the features on this 7,012 yard, par-71 track. Mystic Dunes will leave a lasting impression on you.

Rough fairways

Booked on a hot deal. Did bag drop got paired with two others. Wouldn't let us take three carts even though it wasn't busy. No big deal. The course was switched on nines from last year. Tee box's and fairways were rough. They need time overseeding and water. Greens were good and love the elevation changes. Makes you think.

Need some work

Greens were firm and well managed. Ted boxes were in good shape. Fairways need some water.

Good to be Back!

I haven’t played here in over a year but the conditions were good. Fairways were in good shape, the greens were in great shape although the green speeds varied from the front 9 to the back. Green speeds were much faster on the front 9. The off course amenities are always a pleasure…it’s a resort so you’d expect them to be. The pace of play was good and the rate was very reasonable. I’ll be back for sure.

Conditions Good!

I find recent negative condition reviews hard to understand. I’ve played all over Orlando area and today’s conditions were very good! Fairways are just a bit patchy but this had zero impact on playability. All 18 greens were very good - just keep your ball below the hole! VERY pleased with the experience!

Sadly disappointed!!

I must say the good first. I was playing golf with my buddies and the weather was great!! The course is laid out to 6400 yards from the blue tees and provides a good challenge for our skill level. Our handicap ranges from 10-23. Mine is a 10 and I shot 86. We decided to play here , because we found a 49.00 voucher on Golfergroup.com. I must say I would not pay anymore than that to play this course. The rate on this day was 129.00!! Absolutely not worth it!! Fairways were ok but if you missed the fairway by 1 yard….good luck on getting a good lie. The “waste” bunkers are so full of sand, the starter told us to take a feee drop!! There was at least 8 in of sand in these areas and almost impossible to find your ball if you hit it in there. The greens did roll very well. Some were a little damaged and not as nice as the rest. The greens were rolling about a 10-10.5 and making putts wasn’t out of the question if you got the line right!! Now, the worst part!! PACE OF PLAY!! The starter said we were about a 4 hr pace when we teed off…WRONG!! It took our foursome 5.5 hours to play thanks to the 2 foursomes in front of us. They were on vacation from Canada and drunk as could be!! No Marshall in sight to tell them to speed up or let faster groups play through….this made for a very long day of golf…..Overall, if you can get a voucher to play and you got all day, then I say go play there. If charged regular price and time can be challenging, I would skip this one!!

Recently Renovated, Course is Beautiful!

Undulating greens, stunning layout and a tale of “Two Nines” define this gorgeous course!

The front nine consists of lowlands golf similar to South Carolina. The back nine is more similar to links style golf typically found outside of Florida.

There is a good mix of water & sand hazards to make Mystic Dunes a course on your “short list” worth playing!

Kenzies restaurant and full service bar provides outstanding food & beverages as a fantastic backdrop for the 19th hole!

The fact they support Veterans with a 15% discount stands them up in favor over nearby courses like Celebration, Reunion or Champions Gate.

Do yourself a favor & try this gem of a course!
